The Legendary Man Chapter 320
You Are A Step Behind
There were countless reputable political figures in the hall exchanging drinks and making merry.
Meanwhile, Zayne was chatting with a few young scions of Yaleview’s notable families.
He hid the fact that the Maxwells would be exiled out of Yaleview, so no one knew that he would no longer be one of the legendary Baykeep’s Four Elites after tonight.
“Zayne, why did your family suddenly organize such a lavish party tonight?” a middle-aged man in a pair of gold-rimmed glasses asked after taking a sip of his red wine.
It had to be said that the Maxwell residence was a place most people could only dream of entering.
Although they were all Yaleview’s well-known scions, there was a stark difference between them and the Maxwells of the four prominent families.
“Nothing much. My dad just wanted to hold a banquet in celebration of the achievements of our family for the past few decades. Hence, I took the opportunity to invite you guys over to our house.” Zayne maintained his composure and smiled faintly. He did not reveal any hint that their family would not be a part of Yaleview after tonight.
It was their way of preserving the Maxwells’ pride.
Anyone who dared to expose them would be their lifelong enemy. Therefore, they would not allow anyone to give them away.
“No wonder! Given your dad’s personality, he would not have organized such a grand banquet for no reason.” After hearing Zayne’s words, the middle-aged man in gold-rimmed glasses shook his head and laughed.
At the same time, his gaze inadvertently landed on Sophia, who just entered the room with Lydia. “Look, Zayne! Isn’t that Sophia Goldstein, the one Troy wooed for years in futile?”
“Sophia?” Upon hearing that name, Zayne turned his head subconsciously.
He was pretty familiar with that name as his sister, Lydia, had been a good friend of Sophia since a long time ago.
He had even tried to secretly court the woman in the past. However, Sophia did not reciprocate his feelings.
Coincidentally, a female celebrity was trying to get close to him then, so he did not bother to put any more effort into Sophia.
Women! As long as I have money and status, I can get all kinds of women I want.
He would not waste his time and effort on a mere Sophia.
“You haven’t heard, have you?” The same middle-aged man in gold-rimmed glasses glanced at Zayne and said, “There’s a rumor saying that Troy’s arms and legs were broken by someone a while ago. He has been in the hospital for almost a week and is still in the intensive care unit as of now!”
“Troy’s limbs were broken?” A hint of surprise flashed across Zayne’s eyes. “When did that happen? Why haven’t I heard of it?”
Troy is the only grandson of the Zeller family’s leader, Nathan! He’s the sole heir to the Zellers! Who would dare to cripple him? That person must be courting death.
